BS your resale should be good. Especially since you have that super duper synthetic oil in the car that keeps the insides good for 500K plus.

That's pretty much right on the money w/ me. I've had my car since May of last year and just crossed into 24,000 and my car is great, so I wouldn't worry about it. After all, what good is a car if you can't drive it?

I laugh at your 30, and raise you another 30. That's right, 60 miles to work, and 60 back.

The average mileage is 1000 miles a month. So I would say that you have a little more than the average mileage.

Very true. My dad, who is retired, drives probably 12,000 a year. But hardly anyone else I know does.

When I had my Beretta, I averaged 25,000 miles a year, for 13 years, until some kid wrecked it at 318,000. Before I had that car, I cranked out 44,000 miles in a year once with one of my Novas, but that was because I was using it for work.
